How to solve this issue: Package executes itself


Badge

I’m facing this issue:

This package is scheduled to run every half an hour. On rare occacions the package executes itself as shown on the picture to the left (blue rectangle) and the execution log shows both executions as successful. 

We would like to know any insight to help us solve this issue. 

 

Some things to consider:

  • At the customer’s request the package is being run from the Task Scheduler. 
  • The execution log does not show any errors as shown in the image above (green rectangle)
  • This is how the retries are setup:
  • The task scheduler showed this warning:

  • We got this email throwing an error. However, the "network-related error” is nowhere to be found since according to the execution log it ran successfully:

Hi @David Prieto could you please try upgrading to at least 20.10.29, or ideally, the latest version 20.10.43 and see if this resolves the issue?

Thank you Christian, sorry for my late response. We would have to talk to the customer about it and see.

@David Prieto have you had a chance to upgrade?

@Christian Hauggaard. Sorry for the delay in my response. The client does not want to upgrade yet. However, we have told them that they are going to have to do it at some point. 

 

I have an unrelated question. Which is the procesing option when TimeXtender is processing a endpoint? (Analysis services tabular endpoint).

@David Prieto when executing a tabular endpoint, the Analysis Services database is processed. In the new version of TimeXtender, it is possible to process a single table or partition using Powershell scripts:

 We will be releasing a migration tool that supports upgrading from 20.10 to the new version.

@Christian Hauggaard. Which is the database processing option? Process Default, Full, Clear or Recalc and can it be changed somewhere?

@David Prieto Full, and it cannot be changed within TimeXtender. However you can process an AS db using a different processing option using a Powershell script in the new version of TimeXtender

Thank you for all the information @Christian Hauggaard
